The new wand stats aren't precisely proportional to rarity, but they follow the same sort of rough association that swords do.

I have to disagree, Talefung with a Govannon blessing (which has no resistance possibilities atm) gives you the chance to poison and also use weapon magic 24/7. There are 2 Talefungs and 1 Angelblade, their ability to poison + have another blessing makes them the best weapons in the game. But with the wands, the difficulty to find them should be factored into the stats. For items such as like Valentine's Wands or w/e arent necessarily difficult to find in the manner of them dropping from a monster, but in the fact that its just an old item. I think theres a difference.
